On Dolan, I wonder if someone will try and agree a fee with us to stop it going to tribunal like Peterborough/QPR did with Poku recently. Tribunals can take months to sort out.

Probably not true in Dolans case. We have to offer Dolan a new contract on at least the same terms as he's on now to trigger compensation in case he moves to somewhere else in this country. Surely we have at least managed to do that!

Eustace came out within days of moving there seeing that it had been claimed that he moved for those reasons, and that it wasn't true.

At a normal club you would think so. Here? Who knows.

My prediction is that it gets moved to the Friday night for TV, and Yasir and co will make it a category A game. Everything possible to try and keep the numbers down.

I'm fully of the opinion that our 11 on the opening day won't have one new signing involved.

I'll give it a 5% chance incase Legia crumble and accept a low fee

We won't go to that price for Kapaudi. Next.

This isn't true. It has been like that the past two seasons, but before that it was how Rev described for the previous 4 seasons, 19/20, 20/21, 21/22 & 22/23.

Two years ago, we played Huddersfield and Hull away 26th and 29th and played Rotherham at Ewood on 1st Jan.

All games up to the end of September by 3rd July. All games selected up to FA Cup 4rd round weekend by 31st July.

No but I think Duru is still injured from the back end of last season.

Scored a few goals on the training vid in day two. Only person I haven't seen on anything so far is Forshaw.

This whole saga will still be going on in the year 2035 at this rate.

Where is this from?! Only been on the training pitch 2 days!

£30 for the 30 year anniversary wasn't it? https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2024/may/21/season-ticket-prices-reduced-for-2024-25/ But yes hardly a reduction that was going to move the needle. Thick as mince they are.

Jake Batty close to agreeing a new deal according to Elliot. I imagine the plan is to get him another loan next season and see where he's at after that.

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/25259212.sky-sports-deadline-blackburn-rovers-opening-fixtures/ This is when Elliot thinks the TV picks will be made for the coming season.

Probably be like last season, where they were organising Friday/Saturday games through out pre season, and forgot to arrange one on the Saturday before the start of the season. I'm not really sure why we aren't playing a match on 5th July either considering they will have been training for two solid weeks before that? Unless they are doing something behind closed doors maybe.

We aren't in the market for free agents due to signing on fee/wage demands. Both look to have decent pedigree compared to our first two signings, which tells me they probably won't happen.

Looks like Poku is going to QPR.

Well he did live in England until he was 19!

He could enquire all he wants. He wouldn't get an answer.

Yeah the TV deal is still the same so all first day, last day, midweek and bank holiday games will be live. That means no Saturday 3pm kick offs for the opening day for the Championship.

I think his replacement signed a few days ago personally.
